The Drones- Wait long by the river.......

Its an Australian band that rule!!! Kind of in the key of late Scientists, The Gun Club, Deep in the Woods era Birthday PArty..... I read a pitchfork review and thought i'd hate them cause they said "wont win any prizes for originality" but i disagree totally, long dark bluesy rock with tape manipulation/synth type stuff as well.

Shit i'm putting it on right now!!

Les Claypool Frog Brigade - Purple Onion

New Mono? I'm preordering that shit NOW.

Cds :
Guerilla Poubelle - Il faut repeindre le monde... en noir.
Underground Railroad - Twisted Trees

Bradbury (ex Severed Heads) new album "Instant Oblivion".

Excellent.

Bedhead : "Transaction de Novo"

Ghislain Poirier - Bounce le Gros vol. 2.1

30 minutes of pure bliss

Vespertine Live by Bjork

It's exceptional. Loving every minute of it.

Giant Drag - Lemona

I have booked it and i hope to get it tomorow

I've just this very second purchased a 2CD box set with booklet (The British Library National Sound Archive, 1987) called British Bird Songs and Calls. It's split into four sections:

Grebes to Terns
Doves to Dunnock
Thrushes, Warblers and Flycatchers
Tits to Buntings

It was compiled and edite by a chap called Ron Kettle.

'll post a photo later on tonight if you like!

Bird calls are a useful thing to have for sure. I found a 7" flexi of bird calls in a stack of records that someone left in our house....we seem to have them for keeps now. It sounds really awful but that's to be expected for a flexi with no sleeve thats been schleped around between a bunch of other records in a plastic bag.

Anyhow....today I got Straight Outta Compton by NWA for 2.99. Also Dragnet by The Fall. And Weekend by Goddard on DVD.

97th Hammer:

Did you like the Virgin Insanity LP?
I bought it, and was severely underwhelmed by the non-charming amateurishness of the music and the seriously painful, ultra-naive lyrics. I wanted to like it, I really did, but I couldn't get into it.
I saw an original go for $2600.00 on ebay once too, crazy.
If you did like it, tell me what you liked about it and maybe I will give it another spin, try to see it from your perspective?

i was tempted to buy the reissue of that virgin insanity LP based on what i read, maybe i'll download it now instead. Have either of you heard either the Roots Of Madness or Mark Tucker reissues on DeStijl? How are they?

i found both VU live 69 cds used for 12 which was awesome. And I also got a stooges boot on vinyl, detroit rehearsals 73. The stooges boot is cool to have, but I kinda wish I had just gotten something else instead.

Ramones s/t Expanded and Remastered
